Rwanda Crying Poem by Leonard Dabydeen

Rwanda Crying



The battle continues
as if there is no tomorrow
wound upon wound
hurt upon hurt
how they strive
on each other's fear
crawling empty stomachs
like black ants
on a ruptured molehill
do they know each other
will they ever do
each passing night
the moon lights up
the darkness
peering at eyes
without vision.
